THE President has intimated that
he will excuse those cities which pro-
posed to send delegates to Washington
conveying invitations to visit them
on his western trip, if they forego
adapting that formality, and that they
may forward their communications
by mail. 1t seems that he is remark
ably free from the love of pomp that
has characterized some of his prede-
cessors. He comes nearer filing the
bill of Jacksonian simplicity" than
any man who has filled the Office, OF
Chief Executive since "Old Hick-
ory's" Administration.

The midsummer number of the
West Shore is a beautiful and attractive
one. There is q charm of freshness
and novelty about this magazine that
is lacking in many other publications.
Its elegant engravings of Western
scenes and picturesque landscapes
are rarely equaled by anything pub
lished, while the mass of information
it gives monthly about Oregon, Wash
ington, Idaho, Montana, British Co
lumbia and Alaska is extremely valu-
able. The midsummer number con-
tains large engravings Of the city of
Astoria and the mouth of the Colum-
bia river, the seaside resorts, the sal
mon canneries, and others, all Of them
accompanied by interesting descrip-
tive articles. The other contents are
entertaining and valuable. Published
by L. Samuel, Portland. Oregon, at
$3.50 per year.

board the vessel on Monday, and an
official report will be made in a few
days. The result of the labors on the
Board AS summarized is that the ship
at present is practically useless. Her
structure appears to be strong and
free from weakness, but her armament
is hors du combat. Tie deck of the
vessel remains intact, but the gum
carriages, clip circle and clips will
have to be repaired before further
tests can be made. This portion OF
the fittings of the vessel evidently
were not intended to retard the recoil
of the guns and the damage done was
in excess of what Was reasonable. 1t
is manifest from the location of the
six-inch guns that if the eight-inch
guns were in perfect order the six-inch
guns would be idle, as it would be i'm
possible to work both guns at the
same time. The smaller secondary
battery is also useless while either the
eight or six-inch guns are being fired.
The result is that the Atlanta, as
vessel of war, as her armament is now
arranged, is absolutely worthless, and
the discharge of her heavy powdered
guns is likely to be followed by injury
to the vessel. These batteries, which
ought to be SO arranged as to be fred,
if necessary, simultaneously, are in
operative for single fire.
